Summary: The Best Manual Of the Greek Lyric
Comment: As a student of Greek Lyric poetry, I have spent many an hour in the library pouring over varying translations of many greek lyric poets. This book is by far the most complete, true-to-original book around; it has nearly all earth's remaining greek lyric from the Lyric Age, and, fankly, Barnstone's poems outstrip others in naked beauty. Those who are looking for Sappho--Each translator has thier strong poems and their weak ones, Barnstone, however, is strongest overall. His version of "To Anaktoria" is my favorite of all Sappho in translation.
